Floyd Mayweather and Manny Pacquiao gave everyone at the Miami Heat vs. Milwaukee Bucks game something to talk about Tuesday night.
MStars News has learned that the boxing champions sat courtside miles apart and met up during halftime to have their first conversation ever.
According to Bossip, the two men had everyone in their seats nervous as it appeared they were about to fight, but instead they shook hands, and spoke briefly about their possible match in May.
"He gave his number to me and said we will communicate with each other," Pacquiao said, in a statement toThe Associated Press.
Pacquiao revealed that this was the first time he met Mayweather in person. Pacquiao's adviser Michael Koncz would not shared the details on what both men said to each other, but everyone suspects it was about their rumored fight that is supposed to happen this year.
"We did meet and chat but I don't I want to say what we discussed," Koncz said, noting that "it was a private discussion. They had a private, friendly discussion, and that's all I really want to say."
Mayweather is a Heat supporter and is usually attends all of the Heat's games. Pacquiao was in Miami because he particpated in the Miss Universe pageant over the weekend as a judge.
